DEATH OF GENERAL HAZeN.
The chief of the signal Service Suecumbs
toa Disease of Long Standing Aggravat-
cd by "A Recent Severe Coda Calm ana
Peaceful Death.

W.suINGToN, Jan. l7.-General W. Ii.
Hazen, chief signal officer, died here OF
diabetic coma at eight o'clock last even
ing General Hazen had suffered from
diabetes for some years; but OF late, nav
ing improved in health and strength, hopes
were entertained of his complete recovery.
At the reception to the diplomatic corps
given by the President last Thursday
night, he took a severe cold, causing him
to keep his bed on Friday. On Saturday
he was up and reported himself much bet
ter. saying he would go to his ONCE on
Monday. Yesterday morning his phys
ician, Dr. 7. +. Harvey, U. 3. A, was sum
moned to see him soon after daylight lie
at once repaired to his room and found al
alarming change in his condition,
suggesting a poisoning OF the blood
from his constitutional disease. DIR. Har
vey at once adopted measures TO overcom
this condition and restore strength. A
consultation was also at once sought with
Dr. d. l.. Huntington, of the army, who
agreed in the main with the attending
phvsician. The case was deemed OF so ex.
treme gravity that his relatives in this
city were informed, and they at once
gathered about him and spared no effort
TO bring him relief Some improvement
resulted from the treatment, but toward
evening his symptoms became aggravated
and at the urgent request OF the family
DIR, Lincoln was also cal led IN and mel
Drs. Harvey and Huntington in consulta
ton. Every measure that skill or science
could suggest failed to rally the sinking
officer and he breathed his last at eight
o'clock. His final illness was not accom-
panied with suffering, and his death was
calm and without a struggle.
General Hazen was born at West Hart
ford. Vt, on the 27th of September, 1880.
In 1851 he was appointed cadet in the
military academy At West Point and
graduated in 1855. In Septem Der, 1861, he
took command of the Forty-tirst Ohio reg.
iment and served with distinction to the
close of the war, when he was in com
cand Of the Fifteenth Army Corps. Gen
eral Hazsn was appointed chief signal
officer in December 1880, succeeding Gen
eral Myer.

some Pretty Things for Ladies With Ple-
thoric Pockct-Books.


The richly-dyed and expensive Terry
ottomans worn this winter are preferred
to the same materials of finer twill,
which were so popular last winter.
Some very beautiful woolen reps are
imported, and each pattern of these
goods. when of one solid color, is in
variably accompanied by a Roman
plaided or other figured fabric, proving
that the long-favored fashion OF COM
bination remains in vogue abroad.
Softer materials appear in exquisitely
fine French cashmere with woven or
raised figures done in contrasting
color, for example, the ground may be
dark Venetian green, with tiny figures
in bright Neapolitan red, or woven lots
or small leaves or stars of deep gold
may be seen upon a ground of dark
olive or golden-brown Cardinal woven
on background of delicate nuns
gray IL a fayorite pattern, and forms a
stylish and becoming overdress for a
pleated or paneled skirt of the plain
gray fabric.
Fur is one of the crazes of the pres.
ent season. 1t is to be found every
where upon the toilet. There are
plush dinner and theater gowns, with
heart-shaped corsages bordered with
dark fur; ball dresses are trimmed with
narrow bands of fur; tea gowns are
enriched with this inappropriate trim
ming, and turbans, bonnets and visites
are fur-bordered. There is also a new
low-necked Russian corsage called the
Marie Leczinski, which has narrow
band of Russian sable around the
square neck, and also bordering the
edge of the corsage, and for women
who are very sensitive to the cold are
expensive dress skirts of seal and other
fur, lined with seal-brown surah. Fur
gauntlets, bonnets, ,leggings, close-fitting
corsages and riding boots in Russian
fashion are also to be had at prices
which render them far beyond the
reach of the ordinary purse.
A stylish and pretty skating costume
is made of golden-brown India cloth,
crossed with heavy lines of amaranth
red velvet The skirt has band of
golden-brown beaver. at the foot; the
wing drapery. long and full in the
back, is simply hemmed. and the front
of the ample apron tunic is Dordered
with narrower bands of the same fur
the loopings on the left side caught up
with heavy silk cords in brown. with
glimpses Of scarlet showing here and

wAsHouTs ON THE TYBEE ROAD
The Com 5ination of Flood Tide and
Wind Temporarily Injure the Line.

The Com 5ination of Flood Tide and
Wind Temporarily Injure the Line.
The passengers from Tybea had a difficult
time reaching the city yesterday morning,
as the water has washed out the bed Of the
Tybee road in places The freshet coming
down met the spring tide which was backed
up by stiff Southwestern and the water rose
TO an extraordinary height. In the neigh
borhood of McQueen's Island the track
was covered with water for about
five miles, and when the water receded it
was found that the bed had been washed out
in spots for distance of three miles leaving
the ties and rails feet above it. Three
construction trains of twelve cars each and
a large force of men were Immediately put
to work and the road was promptly re-
paired. The passengers had to count ties
over the three miles that were washed out
TO catch the train on this end of the line.
The wind and tide made a new beach at
Tybee The sand was washed until now it
covers to depth of feet the platform on
which the bathers used to walk TO the sea.
Capt. Purse, President Of the Tybee road,
was seen last night and he said that the
regular schedule would be run to-day. By
noon yesterday all the slight washes were
repaired and the afternoon and night trains
came through all right If any washes are
found this morning a large force will be on
hand to repair them at once but no trouble
is anticipated as the tide last night was four
inches lower than on the previous night.
